With stages situated in a surrealistic Mardi Gras float warehouse and beside the mighty Mississippi, Buku is one of the most picturesque Crescent City music fests. It skews toward a millennial audience, give or take. For those who complain that Jazz Fest has become Jurassic Park, Buku is No Country for Old Men. Last year, the festival expanded it’s footprint with a big new stage nearer Tchoupitoulas Street. The management reported that both days of the enlarged 2018 fest sold out, with capacity crowds of over 17,500.

The prices of Buku 2019 tickets, which go on sale Tuesday, (Dec. 11) at 10 a.m., have not been announced. Last year’s single day Buku tickets started at $100, two-day tickets started at $190, with special VIP tickets are available at higher prices. For more information, visit the Buku Fest website.
